[@lucyforrester2633]

HEY GUYS! I confess I had NO CLUE who TOOL was.....never heard of them. But I gotta say I really liked this song and this band. These guys are obviously very talented and sort of reminded me of the journeys that RUSH would take me on. Good review also! I would listen to more of this band in the future.

[@Hoosier3091]

@@lucyforrester2633 they definitely have Rush roots. They are progressive rock just like Rush. You'll enjoy a lot of their other stuff!

Jambi’s groove will blow you away. Can’t wait to witness your reaction.

[@sarahp8058]

I love Jambi, but I think they should get on to the old raw Tool like Cold and Ugly, Bottom, Flood, Opiate, Swamp Song and 4°

The ultimate compliment you can give a song is “ you don’t want it to end”..... That’s TOOL

[@candyman1337]

"We need your help, and your permission. So we need you to find a comfortable space, that's not only comfortable but vulnerable. I want you to shut your eyes and go there, and we'll meet you on the other side (echo)..." - Maynard from Pushit on Salival. Great one!

[@flytmedicdunk2]

I remember the first time I heard that on Salival when it was released. By the end of Pushit, I was in a trance almost like my body was producing its own DMT.

[@alihijazi4451]

My favourite live performance from TOOL by far! And one of the best live performances I've ever listened to, by far!

[@darkchiron]

"I wonder if we'll be able to tell the difference in when one song stops and one song starts" - I'm sitting here thinking 'Oh believe me, you'll be able to tell' :D This song(songs?) is one of my favorites from them. It meant alot to me back when it first came out. Glad you guys are enjoying the Tool thus far. Hopefully we don't steer you wrong at some point in one of these polls.

[@marcofurtado5459]

My friends... Thicks and Leeches, Rosetta Stoned or Wings (both parts)...

[@VinceFerrante]

Marco Furtado Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned is a unique masterpiece

[@malfeas99]

If you're going to follow the whole journey that leads to Wings for Marie you need to dig into A Perfect Circle as well, with Judith, and Jimmy, from Aenima. It's worth doing as a full video. If you can keep from crying, because I can't, even after 100 listens.

[@davidobrien9216]

It’s the way you both closed your eyes as he started to sing :)

[@Hoosier3091]

Haven't seen it mentioned too many times, but another Tool song you guys need to do is Eulogy. My personal favorite by them and a hard hitting chorus.

[@jmarra07]

Also The Grudge

[@zachcampbell3229]

Nasty bridge in Eulogy

[@assmaster420]

Don’t u fukin lie! Don’t u step out of line! Don’t u fukin lie! Don’t u fukin lie to me!

[@malcolmsmith3590]

Eulogy was the first tool song i listened too and my god it literally is a display of probably the best musicians in the world. No joke and i can’t think of another band with the talent everyone has in this band besides Rush and Led Zep.

[@matthewkologi6833]

I listened to Eulogy on repeat for about 6 months every time I got in my car in 1998. I got sucked in and refused to listen to anything else. After 6 months, I allowed the cd to move on to the next songs. Then, I got to Aenema, and I hit the repeat button again for another few months. Don’t get me wrong, every song was amazing, but those two awoke something in me. I went from being just a big Tool fan, to completely obsessed. I bought Salival, just as a way to hold me over, only to lose my mind over how insane it was. I stood in line for hours to buy Lateralus at midnight on the day it was released. I was not disappointed. I bought 10,000 Days in Kyrgyzstan, on my way home from Afghanistan, and it helped me cope with a lot of loss and sadness. Now, with Fear Inoculum, I’ve come full circle and it has again allowed me to feel a lot of joy and positive introspection. No music has ever reached me like theirs, and I seriously doubt anyone else will even come close.

[@ToolFist598]

There's only one number in a rating system for Tool. 10

BEST COMBO SONGS FROM TOOL 🔥🤘🏻🍺 I can’t help but headbang with you both

[@sevenduster27]

Bands like Pink Floyd, Grateful Dead and The Doors, and now today’s generation “TOOL”, they all really took/take you on a musical journey and tap into your subconscious. It’s not about being “rockstars”, it’s about the feeling and deep emotions, things you’ve never thought about and thinking outside the box and Those aspects of music are way more important.

[@newtdockery9575]

Hip hop was supposed to be that way, but it got hindered by materialism, drugs, and sex.

[@edrueter9]

You guys are awesome. I couldn't have picked a better couple of tracks for you guys to listen to. It reminds me of when my dad started showing me Led Zeppelin. There's something really cool about diving into a band's collection well after it's out. I love the sense of discovery, and watching someone else go through it is almost as satisfying. Keep it up!

[@thegoatchild3545]

The transition cannot be more obvious....one of the greatest in the history of rock....🤟🍺

[@brianhurst9883]

They made the transition very obvious yet still seamless. Very Tool.

[@jasonknight4598]

Tool is a outerbody trip if u focus, which you guys do, ive seen alot ur videos, and u guys dont talk through the music, and go for a ride, and tool songs are a journey, great reaction, to me its like listening to another form of rush, or yes, or pink floyd, its like reading a book! or watching a movie with ur mind.

[@jaimepastrano2133]

Lost keys / Rosetta Stoned will blow your mind

[@kykk3365]

Schism had been around for awhile when the album was released, but after that this was the first song(s) I found myself wanting to come back. Still get serious chills everytime from "Aliiiiive...", not to mention how F! beautifully and delicately the Parabol segment is executed. You will really appreciate how Parabol follows Schism once you get around to listening to the whole album.

[@pasza_dem]

Totally my favourite Tool song.

[@BuckySwang]

A Perfect Circle - Judith Tool - Wings for Marie (Pt 1) Tool - 10,000 Days (Wings Pt 2) These 3 should be listened to in sequence

[@ryanlarocque2571]

One of the few TOOL songs with an official video. I highly recommend watching it. It's its own experience.

[@joshreed7102]

This was awesome! At 9:48 the guy on the left looked like “ WTF just happened?” and the guy on the right looked like he was drugged.

Oh, guys! What have you done to me? Where did I just go? This song is.....AWESOME! My whole spirit just soared when they went from mind chilling calm to kicking it up to the sky! Wow!!!! Just WOW! Thank you Thank you Thank you for this! I am living proof that you are NEVER too old to discover new music! I loved the whole song, but the beginning just wove itself into my soul! AMAZING! You. Must. Do. More. Tool! Please!

@Kim Huckaby Wow I’m glad you like it so much! We do as well!! Tool has become of my favorite bands pretty quickly, great tracks, we’ll be doing not for sure don’t worry!! 😁🔥

[@STILL-KICKIN]

Fun Fact: The last few guitar notes are a tribute to the band YES and their song Roundabout. You should check it out!

[@thomasdavies1733]

Love to see you guys listening to Tool again, you guys really seem to get it. I'm currently hiking 1200 miles from the top of Scotland down to the bottom of England and I really enjoy watching your videos on my hike. Your also totally right on Maynard's voice being an instrument in its own right. Keep it up my dudes, I'm a big fan.

[@elenasferlazzo422]

The sensation you got when you said it felt like 3 minutes.... I got that feeling at their concert in Amsterdam last June. The show ended and I was like, but it has only lasted 30 minutes!(2 hours really)! Wanted moooore

[@justinmccln]

So few reactors EVER do a reaction to H by TOOL. Do it! Its sooooo good!

[@jordonhigginbotham3275]

You definitely have to hear them a few time to really appreciate what they are doing. There are a whole lot of really cool parts that you don’t really catch the first time you listen to it only because there is so much to listen for. Like you were saying, y’all will definitely begin to appreciate this song a lot more the more you listen. I found myself listening to it a few times then kinda putting it away, and the next time I listened about a week later I already knew what to except and it made the experience even better than before

[@Toolband1980]

Saw them recently live in Amsterdam, and they played this. Hadn't seen this live yet. It was AMAZING!!!

[@samuelwallace2427]

I like the somber parabol, the little mini solo, and how he sings the chorus low, and then an octive higher the second time. Speaking if those middle eastern melodies, there’s a similar feel in their song “Reflection.” I’m sure y’all will get around to it, can’t wait for Disposition/Reflection

[@campbell1469]

Now on to Jambi!

[@FatFredyFreak]

That outro...fucking goosebumps every time. Now go watch the official video so it can blow your mind all over again.

[@brianhurst9883]

Tool is always amazing. You need to react to H. It's on the Aenima album. A song that never gets enough mention. Absolutely beautiful piece of music. Keep rocking on guys.

I'm in full agreement with this. They will be blown away. Maynards vocals are unreal.

My only problem with that version is they leave out a big chunk of the original lyrics.

There will come a time that you will need to see Tool live. The time is now!

[@willie1062]

Everything about Lost Keys Rosseta Stoned is mind blowing Danny's drumming is not human and Maynard the way he delivers the vocals omfg. The song is about a guy who get abducted by Aliens. Its outta this world.

Jambi dudes, the groove will blow you away.

[@lobotomizedjellyfish2171]

As mentioned by other, Ticks and Leeches is a must. Also check out Thirdeye

[@NWGhost71]

So difficult to try and rate Tool songs. My favorite is which ever one I am listening to at the time. You guys need to check out a song or two from Opiate their first ep. Songs are shorter but killer and raw. Maybe Cold and Ugly or Jerk off, both are live and kick ass. Play them both back to back. Also Please check out Black Diamond from KISS 1975 promo. I would really like to see what you have to say from a younger perspective good or bad regarding old school KISS. Later guys keep doing what you are doing. Great reactions.

[@Jablan11]

Danny,the drummer is the source of the middle eastern instruments.His drum teacher got him to use tablas,Indian drums,you can hear that in Right in Two a lot.Also these 2 songs are as unique as it gets in my opinion.It is kinda more raw compared to other songs on Lateralus but it is because they want you to get the message clearly.This song is about celebrating life,and knowing youre not alone which is rare as hell in metal.

[@brownbenplumm9027]

Saw them for the first time 2 nights ago. Amazing experience. Unfortunately they didn’t play parabol before parabola. Still incredible though. Can’t wait for the new record

[@ToolFist598]

There needs to be more reactions to the new song Invincible. There are really good live versions of it out there especially the 4k one in berlin, germany. Everyone that has reacted to it reacted to the very first version released with all the fans talking over it. Absolutely amazing song....
